Description
Description | A massive immigration detention center planned by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Social Circle, Georgia, involving the conversion of an industrial warehouse into a facility to house up to 10,000 detainees and employ up to 2,500 people. The project covers more than 2.3 million square feet across three buildings on 183 acres. The city has blocked the project due to concerns about water and sewer capacity, placing a lock on the water meter until ICE demonstrates the facility can operate without overburdening local infrastructure. |
